High Expectations
High Expectations, Disappointing Mentorship Experience
First of all, I came into this program with very high expectations, especially considering the $10,000 price tag. I was genuinely motivated, ready to put in the work, and expected to receive proper guidance from people who had already achieved what I was trying to accomplish.
Unfortunately, my experience has been very different from what I expected.
My biggest disappointment has been the mentorship itself. I didn't join a $10,000 program to receive generic advice, watch more videos, or get simple "yes" and "no" answers to my questions. There is already plenty of free information available online.
I joined because I wanted someone experienced to actually look at my work, challenge my thinking, identify my mistakes, explain WHY something wasn't working, and show me how they would approach it differently.
Instead, I often felt like I had to pull the feedback out of my mentor. Sometimes the responses felt rehearsed rather than like genuine, personalized feedback. I don't need someone to agree with everything I say. Quite the opposite — if I'm completely wrong, I WANT to hear that. That's how I expect to learn.
Another major issue was communication.
To give a specific example, I messaged my new mentor on Friday at 6:54 PM and received a response on Monday at 4:48 PM. I understand that mentors have personal lives, weekends, and established response times, and I'm not expecting anyone to be available 24/7.
However, considering the price of this program, I personally expected more consistent communication and thorough feedback. When you're actively working on something and need guidance before moving forward, waiting that long can significantly slow down your progress.
I genuinely felt like I had lost almost an entire week because of the delays in communication.
What frustrated me even more was that I was putting everything I had into this. I was doing the research, testing, making changes, asking questions, and constantly trying to improve. Yet, at times, I felt like I was essentially figuring everything out on my own.
I even raised my concerns about the mentorship and requested a different coach because I genuinely wanted to make the program work for me.
And I want to clarify something: I have nothing personal against the mentors. They have good qualities, and I'm grateful for the time and effort they did put into helping me.
But being knowledgeable about something and being able to mentor someone effectively are two different things.
If I were mentoring students in a program that costs $10,000, I would personally feel a huge responsibility to make sure they were progressing, understanding their mistakes, and getting the guidance they needed. Unfortunately, that level of involvement wasn't something I consistently experienced.
Maybe my expectations were too high. Maybe this mentoring style works perfectly well for other people. I'm simply sharing my own experience.
But for me, the value I received did not justify the investment.
I didn't expect anyone to build my business for me, guarantee results, or hold my hand through every little decision. I expected genuine mentorship — someone who would challenge me, explain their reasoning, provide practical examples, and help me develop the ability to make better decisions independently.
I wanted to understand WHY something worked, not just be told WHAT to do.
I'm genuinely grateful for the things I did learn and for everyone who contributed along the way. However, gratitude doesn't change the fact that I ultimately felt disappointed with the experience.
For $10,000, I expected much more than what I received.
I wasn’t looking for someone to do the work for me. I was looking for someone who could teach me how to do it properly.
Special Thanks to Victor and Daniel !!!
